LDS Mom asked in Beauty & StyleMakeup · 1 decade ago

I need a good mascara. Help please?

I have tried: all Mary Kay brands, all Avon, lancome, Bobby Brown, MAC, clinic (sp), and everything from Target. They ALL SMEAR and/or flake. I thing my eye cream is too heavy for them. But I am not willing to give that up. Any suggestions? THX!!

    You can try Cover Girl "Lash Exact".

    I have used it (but not too much) and I like how natural my eyelashes look. It's been a while since I last used it, but I believe I never had a problem with smearing or flaking with this mascara.

    But everyone's eyes are different, but since this is cheap, you can give it a try and see if it works for you.

    Maybe is your eye cream that's causing the smearing and/or flaking. Don't use it next time you apply mascara to see if is really the cream's fault that's causing the smearing/flaking.

    Good luck and have a nice day! ^__^

    How long ago did you try Mary Kay? We have some newer formulas that may work for you. Also, have you tried to avoid getting the eye cream on your lashes? Check out the new Ultimate Mascara at http://www.marykay.com/bonniestone/color/eyes/mary...

    Also, maybe an eye primer would help as it would go over your eye cream. Although it is designed to help your eye color stay in place, maybe if you applied it so your lashes it would aid the mascara too. Here's a link to it: http://www.marykay.com/bonniestone/color/eyes/1079...

    Good Luck!

    Hmm.. how about Benefit, Cover Girl, or Clinique? Just try hitting up all the make up counters in Macy's.

    i use Dior mascara, im a very big fan. although if you want the most waterproof mascara ever i use bourjois clubbing mascara...you have to SCRUB to get that stuff off. :) also both are nice and black and add a lot of volume and length. good luck on your search!

    Since you think it's your eye cream, but you won't give it up, try using clear or none at all.
